chapter Five As soon as my eyes flutter open in the morning, I am quite surprised by how I feel. I actually feel well rested and not sad. I actually feel excited for the day and I do not know where that feeling is coming from. It feels very foreign. I do not feel like that a lot of the times and I do not know where it is coming from right now. But if I woke up like this every single morning, then maybe I would have a different outlook every single day that I have to go to school, or every single day that I have to stay behind, slaving away to the chores that are placed so heavily on my shoulders, even more than the other maids in the house. I am actually excited to meet my wolf. That is what I know I am excited for. I am always jealous of every single time Stella talks about the connection she has to her wolf. I already have a name for mine. Lia is what I'm going to call her and I cannot wait to connect with her and just see how I feel having a wolf. I'm excited for my first time being able to shift. I did not expect to be this happy for it and I did not know why feel so unrated and energized when I spent almost the entire night trying to fill out the papers that we were handed to in chemistry class. I should be feeling more tired, seeing as I even slept less hours than I normally do, but it is quite the opposite and I am glad for that. Maybe it is the fact that this marks a new chapter of my life and I am already getting ready for it. Well, if it goes on to be this way, maybe it will be a much better time for me. One thing I am not excited about, I still maintain that I do not want to meet my mate. I do not want to know what it is like to be rejected . I have heard of how much it hurts. I have heard of how much your wolf will suffer and how it will just affect everything you do in your day to day. I already have enough stress as it is and I am just hoping I'll be one of those that see themselves as unfortunate. The likes of Rebecca, who to this day has not met her mate four months after her birthday. Seeing as her birthday was so close to Brock's, she really assumed that she would be finding out the happy news that their mates, when he as well, did not know who his mate was until that day. But no, it did not happen the way that she expected it to. And as much as I'm sure she would like to fake that kind of connection with him, it is not one that you can fake. The mate bond is not decided upon by anyone but the moon goddess. And I hope that she has been kind enough to me to give me someone who will at least learn to love me for that one reason that we are mates. Someone who does not have a lot to lose because I know it wrongly be worse. Stella's mate is an omega just like her. They already were friends and it is honestly like something from fairy tales. How they just happened to find out that they are maidsen and just continue to get along and develop an even deeper connection. I have heard so many things from Stella of how you will know you are finding your mate. And to be honest, I am not looking forward to dealing with either one of them. I am not looking forward to seeing just how I will feel when it all starts happening. I really do not want to know it, but I know for a fact that soon enough I will be in that position and I am hoping that it will. It is later rather than sooner. Those who have not found their mates consider themselves unlucky. But I will consider myself very lucky if I do not meet my mate today. I start getting ready for the day. Looking at myself in the mirror, I feel like a new woman. I look different. There is a certain law to me that I do not understand. Maybe indeed there is magic in turning 18 and connecting with your wolf. It has not happened yet, but I am excited for it. I am excited finally have a companion within me. That's what I am sure it is going to feel like. Because apart from Stella and my brother, I really do not have anyone who I feel like has got my back. And who better than my very own wolf that will always be on my side and do what is best for me? There's a knock on my door and I already know who it is. I unlock it and turn around without even saying anything. “Happy birthday to you!!!”. I hear that horrible singing voice that Stella possesses, but still flaunts every single opportunity that she gets. She continues to sing that God awful song that I really hate every single year. “ Happy birthday to youuuu!!” She concludes it with an extra high note and I am just dying to block my ears. But I am not going to be that rude. She finally reveals what she has been hiding behind her arms the entire time. And it is a cupcake. “Where did she get this cupcake?” I ask her. It has one candle on it and I quickly blow it. “Thank you”, I say to her before giving her a hug. “It Does not matter where I got it. All that matters is that it is here and you are going to eat it and get dressed in this.” She pulls out another hand from behind her and it is holding a paper bag containing something. I can already see the color red and I really hate it. I do not like to wear bright colors and she knows it. “That better not be red. I better be colorblind today”, I say to her and she shakes her head. “You are definitely not colorblind because you are going to wear this and it is red. You are going to attract your mate. Make sure that when he smells you and gets near you that you are ready for it. That you look so good that even if he knows everything about you that he cannot help but see anything other than your beauty and all that he feels for you. I am telling you, what you are going to feel for your mate is going to be so powerful that you will not even know what has gotten into you”, she says to me, and that just makes me even more anxious. “ Wow. Way to raise my anxiety levels,” I say to her before shaking my head. “Let me see how bad of a disaster it is”, I say to her before I start to eat the cupcake. Normally I would not do this so early in the morning, but I am not going to turn down a cupcake that Stella somehow got from me “. All right, and as promised, more eye patches for you”, she says, placing the eye patches below my eyes. “Actually, you do not even really need them today. I don't know what you did. Maybe the ones from yesterday are still working, but thank goodness”, she says after letting them rest on my face. I go into the bathroom, my bathroom, to try the dress on. And to be honest, I look so good right now. Very sexy. I never wear anything that accentuates my curves because I would rather not have the attention on me. I'd rather be invisible. And being attractive has a kind of a magnetic effect. It just brings people towards you, lures them in and makes them interested in everything that you are doing. And I do not like that idea. I do not like the idea that all eyes could possibly be on me. “Let me see your hand”, she says after giving me all kinds of compliments on how I look and making me promise that I will not be taking the dress off after I take a shower. “You still have the other bracelet on. Get with the times. It's your birthday now,” Stella shakes before making me take the other bracelet off and put it away. “Good, now we're talking”. She says to me with a smile. I really cannot believe she is this excited, but I am not. I am really anything but excited
